Dr. Rima Bakhru always went the extra mile with me, making many practical, useful suggestions. She is not only smart, but is also kind, supportive, and a joy to work with. She really listened and heard my concerns, and responded to them.
Dr. Bakhru has been providing me with neuro-optometric vision therapy for the past few months. Her knowledge and enthusiasm in this area is unparalleled. When she prescribes a new exercise, it is not done in a vacuum — she explains how the exercise is intended to help my specific symptoms. This gives me confidence that despite how difficult and frustrating the exercise might be to complete, mastering it will help get me back into the world
On a personal note, the patience and empathy that Dr. Bakhru has exhibited during our sessions has made me feel less alone. Vestibular disorders are extremely isolating. Often, when you describe your symptoms, people (even doctors) look at you like you are a crazy person. Not only does Dr. Bakhru truly “get it,” she arms you with the information that you need to understand why you may be exhibiting those symptoms
